Mutagenesis Peer-review Journals

Mutagenesis may be a world which aimed towards the identification, characterization and elucidation of the mechanisms of action of physical, chemical and biological agents capable of manufacturing genetic change in living organisms and therefore the study of the results of such changes.They based on PCR, which permit the deletion of fragments from target DNA. It uses a primer that spans the regions which is to be deleted. Substitutions are an important kind of mutation for structural biology, because it permits the changing of amino acids in proteins. There are several methods of base substitutions based on PCR. The insertion of a brief sequence are often performed simply, by addition of this sequence at the 5' end of a PCR primer. A suitable restriction enzyme site may also be incorporated and then the PCR product can be cloned. A method referred to as "sticky feet" mutagenesis, allows the introduction of huge regions of DNA, into an unrelated target sequence. The second phase of the mutagenesis consist in the cloning of the mutated gene in a specific vector the scheme of a general procedure to clone a gene in a vector by using of specific restriction enzymes to digest both, the gene and vector, DNA ligation of the fragments, and eventually transformation into an E. coli recA- strain . Regarding the timing of realization, about 4 days are requested, excluding the final sequencing of the clones, but in this case it’s necessary the use of restriction enzymes and DNA-ligase.
